Iran installs Christmas light on another strategic US assets!

You must give it up for Iran even if you don’t like them.

They know the war is going to be long and every radar and surveillance system is being obliterated.

I have a feeling that, even when people think Iran might be toning down, they actually still saving the best for the last days and why they are overwhelming every left defense system, which are almost blind.

The US and Israel are in deep shiit!

They just have to keep begging Europe and Australia! Canada and Mexico are not even acting like their neighbor is in a war 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Isolation at its peak!
Israel is a very very very lucky country. I wish it was btw both of them. Ni intervention from outside forces.

This are just speculation, North Korea is too small, and most of their gadget just like China are not battle tested. In a worst case scenario Israel alone can pull off the glove and finish off iran, what you are witness is if I cant have it, then no one can, that's what iran is doing by attacking it's neighbour, they have not even inflicted any significance damage to Israel, so outside damaging US infrastructure in middle East what else can they boost of? Forget propaganda try reaching out to people in tel aviv, they will tell you iran is doing worst currently than the last 12 days war, what you are witnessing is amplified propaganda fuel by Ai and those fanatics noise who dream of seeing Israel fall which we know can't happen, Even if North Korea join iran and remove US from the equation, Israel will still come out of it triumphantly and of course with a price.
This is not Bible studies. This is real life wake up.
The world felt it when the price of fuel skyrocketed in many countries.
It shows how significant Iran is in balancing world economy.
US asked for cease fire not Iran.
Cease fire they refuse to obey when bombing Palestine lol

Though this is a good news but it's already an old news. The latest news is that, a clandestine base in the UAE was just destroyed by Iran.

Hala Iran.
Take a look at the map of the Middle East. That map should show you the sizes of the countries there. Carefully look at the sizes of Israel, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Iraq. Add Jordan to it, leaving out the rest.

If since 1948, Israel has not been wiped away from the map of the world and so far have expanded the size, where is your hope? A small Israel, systematically inflicting destruction on a mighty Iran and seven armed proxies.

That’s how you all praised Hamas. Now Hamas has become extinct, just as Hezbollah is going extinct.

While you focus on an American aircraft, why not tell yourself the truth that internet in Iran is restricted due to propaganda, not letting the people share the true stories of the massive scale of destruction happening there?

While you rejoice and bear some false hope, do not forget that if presented with an opportunity to visit either the USA or Iran, you will without delay choose the USA and even beg for their citizenship.

Before the war, the Iranian Air Force had around 400-600 aircraft, with approximately 300-400 being combat-capable. Here's a breakdown of their fleet before the war:

Combat Aircraft: 286, including F-4 Phantoms, F-5 Tigers, F-14 Tomcats, MiG-29s, and Su-24s
Helicopters: 160, including Bell 214s, AB206s, and AH-1Js
Transport Aircraft: 81, including C-130s, Il-76s, and Boeing 707s
Trainers:88, including PC-7s, MFI-17s, and Yak-130s

Some notable aircraft in their inventory include:
F-14 Tomcat: 41, with 27 operational
F-4 Phantom II: 63, with 47 operational
MiG 29: 30, with 24 operational
Su-24: 30, with 23 operational

Ask yourself where the aircrafts are now located? The answer? Iron kwaden. By the way, how many were able to fly and fight? Why are they not able to carry out bombing missions in Israel and against US interests in the Middle East? Their new found address is iron kwaden empty lands.

They are all destroyed.
How would they be replaced? No one knows. Their economy would finally in tatters after the war and rebuilding would be near impossible. All their investments in other Middle Eastern countries would be seized to be used to fix damages caused by them.

Where would you be by then? On Nairaland shinning your eyes with no solution.

That said, we must feel some pity for the innocent and decent Iranian citizens put under lock and key by the vicious Mullahs. One hopes that they find some strength to fight and liberate themselves from those who have held them bondage for forty seven years. Our sympathy goes to their women, those who are labeled as slaves and are treated as so. May they all be saved.

If they dare drop an Atomic bomb in Iran the rest of the Arab world and Europe will never forgive them because they will also be affected by radioactive fallout from the bomb!

Looking at the thread, we know the crew, jubilating because they manage to get a drone through Saudi air space, not American air space oo, same applicable to Israel, using a cluster bomb which idf has said, they do allow it to get through because the cost of shooting it down is higher than the damage to property(Note: No live lost).

Then you guys will be jubilating, I wish idf will forget rules and unleash Gaza 2.0, I want to see you guys start singing greater Israel, Genocide etc

Does America need forgiveness? They won't even ask for it. People can only react and cry for 1-2 years and it'll be over like Hiro. If you retaliate, they do more.

I am so disappointed in our people.is this the kind of news you should jubilate over? There is war in far away Saudi, Israel, US and Iran and it's effect is already devastating enough even throughout the world.

Small time, you people will be blaming Tinubu that you're buying fuel 1,500 Naira, why won't you buy it at 3,000 per liter?

Rather than be a party to peacemaking how the truce will translate to a complete peace and sword-sheating, you are here jubilating that Iran is wrecking havoc? Continue.

I hope when the US decides to respond and everything scatters, you will not come here to rant and shed crocodile tears.

Destruction of an enemy or his property, no matter how small, is truly a good development.

Iran victory is in the fact that they are destroying Merica planes and they arre showing that despite America and Israel combined forces bombings they are still able to close the strait of Hormuz. That alone is a big victory for them , not many countries could have withstand the bombings for this long .
Now they are waiting for us land troops invasion , if they are able to kills us soldiers then they have tried . America is the one now losing dignity and respect

Well,for your information,
the American Bases in the Middle East Are For The Protection of the Arabs,
So Americans and Israeli knows what Iran is Capable of Doing!
So, don't you Now thinks Iranian-leaders have gone Outside the Mandate of Giving IRANIAN People A Good Life 🧬, instead of Using Their OIL 🪔 Money Fighting Imaginary Enemies as in Arab Countries Neighbours and Setting Jihadist In :
- Gaza( Hamas),
- Yemen (Houthi)- as Paramilitary of the Country,
- Lebanon - Hesbohlah is the reason the Lebanon As A Country do not have Peace, because Hezbollah Is Powerful than Lebanon Army.
-Sudan-in Africa 🌍,
- In Nigeria - as Elzazaki movements-in Kano Kaduna and Abuja metropolis .
•Iranian-leaders under Khamenei have Deviated from the Iranian-Revolution Since!

Let them attack iran and see why other Americans president avoided Iran
But they didn't block the Internet or media from coverage. Moreover the head of the military it has nothing to do with any attack from Iran.

People should keep cheering Iran, it will be clear to everybody. What the world needs now is peace, not the kind of war that is having far reaching effect on the entire world.

If not for Dangote refinery, only God knows what fuel would be costing by now because all these our importers and independent marketers would have strangulated us with their usual sky-high landing cost.

For those that may not know, this aircraft was parked at an Airport in Saudi Arabia, not that it was shot down flying in Iran's airspace.


I love what Iran is doing of late since US and Israel paused military attacks on Iran based on Trump's 11 day ultimatum.


When they resume with full force and wrath, I don't want to hear Israel or US is committing genocide in Iran. The people clapping for Iran now should also remember how Iran have been messing around bombing their fellow Gulf neighbors.



UAE government have already revoked over 10,000 permanent resident permits issued to Iranian people many years ago and also canceled the gold visa for Iranians.

Make Una continue clapping for Iran and cheering Iran to doom shocked cheesy
it doesn't fly close to Iran so it couldn't have been shot down anyway.
